Different Sleep - Forget It (2017)

Having always commanded a sizable online following, Rafa Alvarez aka Different Sleep has functioned in a uniquely digital context since emerging as an artist to look out for, showing off an innate ability to find the equilibrium between progressive sonics and universal emotion. On 1/27/17, the Los Angeles-based artist will release his debut ‘Forget It’ LP, featuring Alfarez's vocal debut and guest spots from IDEH, Vanessa Elisha, Jarell Perry, Angelina Lucero and Deebs. Having forged an initial path on two essential EPs for FoF, ‘Forget It’ is a multifaceted affair, a composition that demands repeat front-to-back listens while existing on a distinctly pop level.

It’s a record with constantly shifting contours and an array of talented guests, but Alvarez is always at the center, either subtly manipulating from the background or taking the mic himself. Self-serious music with heart is often hard to come by in the electronic music world and 'Forget It' is both and more.
